ivor novello - nuts in may lyrics

Loading...

(verse 1)
when i was little i used to play
a rather jolly game known as gathering nuts in may
now i am older still
i have not quite lost my sk!ll
see the nuts i have gathered today

(chorus 1)
i do like gathering nuts in may
if you’ve a dimple
it’s very simple
all you need is a smile that’s sweet and shy
and a sort of twinkle in your eye

here i come gathering nuts in may
when i detect them
i soon collect them
they stand all round me waiting to be picked
i catch their eye and something tells me i have cl!cked
i go like that and in a minute and a half
they’re on my staff

(verse 2)
experts agree that there seem to be
in my collection nuts of each kind and variety
shows what a girl can do
if she takes the trouble to
and no trouble is too much for me
(chorus 2)
i do like gathering nuts in may
on strings i lead ’em
you see i need ’em
ted for tennis and golf and ned to swim
when i’m ready to jazz i call for jim

i do like gathering nuts in may
they come in handy
to buy me candy
if i’m inclined to flirt i simply call for tom
jack’s rather useful, i get him to hold my pom
billy is silly but because he makes me laugh
he’s on my staff

(chorus 3)
i do like gathering nuts in may
on strings i lead ’em
you see i need ’em
to the races i like to go with joe
george can drive the old car and not too slow

i do like gathering nuts in may
they come in handy
to buy me candy
rupert is serious and talks about my soul
peter is quite mushy but quite nice upon the whole
billy is silly but because he makes me laugh
he’s on my staff
